Pop some popcorn and get ready to watch Justin Long as Steve Jobs.

Comedy site FunnyorDie has released its comedic Steve Jobs film, iSteve, on its website, the first of a handful of Jobs films planned for release this year. The 78-minute film was slated for release on April 15, but FunnyorDie delayed it for two days following the Boston Marathon bombing on Monday. It's now available in its full glory on FunnyorDie's website, starring "Get a Mac" actor Justin Long as Steve Jobs.

As we mentioned earlier this month when FunnyorDie released its iSteve trailer, the script was written in only three days, and the film itself took a mere five days to film. This may not be a Hollywood blockbuster, but FunnyorDie says iSteve is the longest project the site has worked on to date.

The goal was to produce an amusing take on Steve Jobs' life before two other more serious films made their way into theaters. One such film is the much-anticipatedJobs starring Ashton Kutcher—originally set to be released on April 19, but reportedly pushed back for more marketing. The other is a three-scene biopic penned by screenwriter Aaron Sorkin, which has yet to commit to a release date.

We here at Ars have not yet watched iSteve, but our friends at TUAW have. Describing it as "uniquely comedic, if not inaccurate," the site says FunnyorDie's film is indeed amusing but also "meta." If you set aside an hour of your day to take a look, let us know how it goes in the comments. It's free, after all, so pull up a fake Excel spreadsheet as a cover for when your boss walks by and check it out.

It's a shame that Apple's new headquarters isn't finished yet for the Arron Sorkin version. He likes to write his actors walking and talking at the same time. They could do it ad infinitum in that giant doughnut.

It seems in today's fast-paced, instant-streaming, twittering, consumerist world, parodies can be released before the serious films they supposedly lampoon. Call me a traditionalist, but I preferred the good old days, when Airplane! came out after Zero Hour!, Airport, and Airport '77.

To be fair, I remember being a kid and getting my copy of Mad Magazine with a parody of Batman (the Keaton one) the week before the movie actually came out.

I have tried IE/FF/Opera and I get to a white box where the video should be. If I right-click, I get Adobe Flash settings (I can see version here of 11.7.700...).

Anyone have any idea why FoD vids won't play (I am in Canada if that matters).

Youtube and most others do play.

Worked for me and I'm pretty sure I was on Opera. Are you using any script blockers (even ghostery?) Is flash up to date?

I do use noscript on FF, but not on Opera/IE and it doesn't work in any browser. I even tried connecting direct/killing SW firewall and just about anything optional running on my computer. Same result. This has always been the case and I am just wondering what could be this issue more than I want to see this specific video.

- Jobs and Gates "working" on the computers by bashing motherboards with hammers and staplers- The bit where Woz gets pushed out of the picture while holding the apple - First appearance of Jack Tramiel- Jobs and Sculley at the urinals getting uncomfortably close- The 90's VR sex scene- The Dell dude with his two popped collars

But mostly it was sort of wincing, almost-comedy. Putting Melinda Gates in there was weird and felt super-awkward and not at all funny. They also made the error of making Jobs out to be the electronics genius at the beginning, which meant the whole "pushing Woz out of the way" bits were less funny than they could have been. If it was more true to life and Woz was the electronics wiz and Jobs just took all the credit (and everyone believed him and didn't believe Woz) then that would have been funnier.

I'm an amateur filmmaker and I've seen lots and lots of bad and semi-bad films at festivals from people with no names or budgets. I'm shocked that they went into production with something that's neither interesting nor funny.

Works for me on my Android phone, in Canada; haven't tried it on my PC yet, but I know what you're talking about.

I run two different profiles of Firefox. One is my "normal" profile with a bunch of extensions (including NoScript, which often gets in the way of a lot of things because so many sites source content and ads from a million third parties), my bookmarks, history, customizations, etc. The other is a bog standard default profile that I use for sites that are so malformed that they can't even load without a gajillion third-party scripts and cookies and shit.

I have FF protected with noscript/flashblock and I use other browsers as my clean browser backup.

I have no blockers/plugins at all in IE/Opera/Dragon (alt Chrome build), so if it were a script blocking issue, it should run in those other browsers, but it doesn't run in any of them. I tried all 4 browsers I have installed. Same result. White screen whith flash running but doing nothing.

I found it pretty unfunny, unfortunately. The first 20 minutes in particular are a joke-free zone, and I was contemplating giving up. It does have a couple of moments, but if the choices are 'funny' or 'die', then it's 'die' I'm afraid. The final line of the film is a good example of how ham-fisted the writing is in places.
